It has romance, mystery, drama, characters of all ages, and most of the actors play multiple roles and multiple ages. This show requires very adept acting, as it is not dependent on sets and costumes so much as the actors themselves, to convey time and place. Also, the actors will be on stage throughout, providing a variety of supporting roles. Auditions will include readings from the script as well as some improvisation, but there is nothing needed to prepare in advance, other than familiarity with the story and characters.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt'><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:red'>Performances are May 30, 31, June 1 and June 5 - 8 at Sand Lake Center for the Arts</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><b><i><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Directed by Deborah Dorman, Produced by Shirley Neiss<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt'><b><i><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Sand Lake Center for the Arts -- Circle Theatre Players<o:p></o:p></span></i></b></p><p><strong><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:blue'>The theatre is located on Rte.43 in Averill Park, a half mile past the blinking yellow light by the intersection with the Lakeview Restaurant, on the left hand side across from Ace Hardware.
